How lucky am I?

First of all, I can’t believe this year marks 32 years of being a professional children’s entertainer.

It’s been great to entertain at Central Library Liverpool this year. A lot of children came back each time to watch the shows. I also got to meet some of my lovely past clients and chat to their children. This month is so busy this year with lots of magic shows to perform and December is almost fully booked.

Note to self: I must get all my presents wrapped and the tree up, before the busiest season of the year kicks off.

Yesterday I entertained for Salford Adoption Services and met some really lovely children looking for adoptive parents. I am tempted to adopt some of the children myself and as a result realised how lucky most of the children who I normally entertain are.

It was great to see the children laughing and interacting with the other adults in the room. It’s times like these that I feel very lucky to be doing the job I do.

By coincidence this weekend my partner found some old School photo’s on Facebook and enjoyed looking back and remembering the names of the other children in class, the Teachers and also seeing what some of theses children were now doing in their grown up lives. Who would have guessed that this shy kid would end up performing shows for a living.

Thank you all for the lovely reviews and for just being such nice people. Feeling very thankful. Oh and a big thank you to my parents who put up with my hobby for all those years.

Customer Reviews

So pleased we picked Paul - 30 children were kept mesmerised for the entire party which is no easy feat in a room full of mainly 4 and 5 year olds. Thoroughly enjoyed by all the children, parents and family who have raved about the party. Very funny with an added layer of humour for us grown ups too that kept us giggling. All the children were included and the time flew by. Fantastic choice all round and we would definitely recommend heartily to others!

After seeing Paul entertain at a friend's party about two years ago I chose to book him for my son Henry's 5th Birthday Party on 9 Feb 2019. He did not disappoint and had the whole audience of 31 children laughing, participating and generally enjoying themselves having a whale of a time for the entire 2 hours. Great end to the party with all the children getting their grown up to join them all to dance to ChuChuWah! Would not hesitate to recommend. Lots of positive comments received after the party from the other children's parents.

We booked Paul for Holly’s 5th birthday party. He was absolutely fantastic, so funny, so entertaining. A thoroughly lovely man too. So worth every penny and thoroughly recommend him for any children's birthday party to make it so special and so amazing.Thank you very much Paul and your funny puppets too.Laura and Holly.

Paul made my daughters 5th Birthday party just brilliant. We had 32 children and were a little worried that there would be too many kids, but Paul had them all in the palm of his hands from the minute they walked in. He even entertained all the mums and dads!! It was a wonderful show. We had Paul for the full 2 hours and I would definitely recommend as we didn’t have to do a thing! Paul a huge thank you for making Holly’s 5th birthday so memorable - we cant thank you enough!

Paul delivered a really lovely show for 3-8 olds. My grandchildren, my daughter’s friends and kids loved it! The adults were as engaged as the children! It was a well prepared show with a good mixture magic/puppet show, balloon modelling, plate spinning and Paul proved to be an excellent ventriloquist! It was a total success! Paul has a very pleasant, engaging personality and presence! There were no cheap clown type of tricks to get laughs! It was beautifully prepared home enertainment of high class ! We were glad we ordered some balloons and spinning plates for little bit extra. It was very good entertainment and you made the Christmas Eve afternoon very special! Thank you!
